Got Legends 11

[Shon Maxx]

Got it, thanks!

Blassie's got a strong card that should do quite a bit of damage in my fed. I plan to push him as a face as I feel the SAGA fans would cheer him no matter what.

John Tolos also has a nice card, though I don't like the Tag move. At least it's on L 1 Offense though. The Tolos Bros. will probably team for a short while before John turns on his brother and joins Fuji and Sullivan in a heel stable. Their anti-social personalities seem to complement each other well.

Saito is stronger than I expected. I'll give him a singles shot while pushing Finlay and Taylor as a tag team. The stable, along with Danielson, is bassically a neutral team that fights anyone. No glitz, no stupid gimmicks, just wrestling.

Saint could do well also. I'm pushing him as a snobbish heel with a holier-than-thou attitude, joining Dundee, Bastein, and Mountie on a moral guardians-like team.

I know I'm weird but Cabana looks like Zach Ryder to me. I'll give him a shot and see what happens. Maybe a feud with Danielson or something.

Ivory's art is my favorite, and she may rival Velvet Sky as my favorite female wrestler.

Shane'll have his shot, but he doesn't interest me much. Good card though.

Grable's card is surprisingly strong.

Overall, great set. Now when can we expect info on the next one?

(You know we LOW fans have ZERO patience!)

Glad you guys like the set so far. This was another fun group to work on.

The next online Promoter will feature rules for what we're going to call a World of Sport Match. Essentially it's special rules for a UK Rounds Style Match. We were hoping to get this in the actual set, but the handbook was full. With Saint, Taylor, and Finlay in the set, we thought it'd be a good match to have.

I was secretly hoping for this...but I really thought it was going to be an Island Death Match that we were going to get! ("Substitute Island Chart for 'out of the ring.' Roll two dice, go to the store, take a nap, cook dinner, then check the result...'")

While we're on the subject of requesting special matches, I believe we're LONG overdue for a Coal Miner's Glove (or just a Weapon on a Pole) Match. Lepus Stun Rod is the closest GWF equivalent, but it isn't the same. It would be a must if Dutch Savage ever were to sign, but I could easily book a Shillelagh on a Pole Match now...

My order (2 sets of LOW 11 along with CHIKARA Rudos and 1 set of Black Death) was waiting for me in my mailbox when I got home from work today.

Colt Cabana is the first new card I am using as my Vegas Wrestling Guerrilla fed is about to start its Year 4.

Nope , Bar Humbug !

I think mine came in the mail yesterday... but it's a Christmas gift from my wife, so I have to wait

[TTX]

Well I have been told it has arrived, but it's a gift for me as well, so 9 more days and counting.

I am in the same boat, but did you guys' wife tell you that the art and stats are incredible? Mine did and then walked away laughing, not sure if she looked at the cards or not.

Well, I don't know if she looked at the art & stats or not, but she was right either way!

Last year I displayed incredible restraint & strong will in not opening my set until Christmas. This year, I was oh so weak. Got L11 & all the Chikara cards and busted'em open after 1 day.

Everything looks great by the way. The Dave Taylor & Ivory cards (and ALL of Chikara) are exceptionally drawn. Just wow.

Great work by all involved.

Let me add some props for the Online version of Jimmy Hart. I was personally hoping that the "real" card would have Interference on it as I don't plan to use Hart as a wrestler probably ever. But the wrestler portion is pretty darned inventive when they could have been throwaway bum stats. The one-time-only "Add 1" move and the variable finisher rating based on how many of his men are at ringside are really unique, clever touches.

Having said that...and God knows I try not to complain about Legends' stats...Jimmy gets a +4 Power Rating? If the Mouth of the South isn't a +5, then who on earth is??
